These earrings are worked in a combination of brick stitch and square stitch. Where two beads are shown stacked on top of each other in the graph, I worked a row of square stitch, then worked the row of square stitch into the brick stitch as if it were a single bead. (I hope to have pictures showing how to do this sometime.)
I worked this piece from the center out, using Delicas. I finished the earrings by attaching loops of silver wire to the top for the ear wire, although loops of beads would work just as well, and French wire would work better.
